Chapter 941 Please Let Me In
Janet couldnât help but worry when she saw this. She peered at the pregnant woman through the glass
door. âHow unfortunate. She looks like she might give birth at any moment, but here she is, obliged to
join her husbandâs pointless demonstration.â
Janet turned to look at Estella, who was leaning against the glass door to get a better view of the
commotion outside. It seemed that she couldnât bear to see the pregnant woman endure such
hardship, either. âShe must be so miserable, being married to a man like Jethro. At this rate, Iâm afraid
that the baby can no longer be saved.â
Janet considered their options and made a decision.
âLet the pregnant woman in,â she ordered. âWe have no idea when the paramedics will get here. She
needs a proper rest in the meantime. Once the ambulance arrives, we shall assist them in loading her
up.â
âThink this over carefully,â Estella immediately cautioned. âIf anything happens to that woman while she
is inside this building, the Larson Group will have to take responsibility. Even if we are not guilty of
anything, Iâm sure Jethro will kick up a fuss and pin the blame on the company.â Although she had
never experienced something like this before, she was sharp enough to recognize the risks that the
circumstances entailed.
âI will bear the consequences,â Janet declared, her expression grim. She couldnât just stand by and
watch the pregnant woman suffer.
Dark clouds soon gathered above them. Lightning streaked through the sky just a few seconds before
the heavens burst into a heavy downpour.
Without giving it a second thought, Janet turned to the security guard at the door and said, âTell the
pregnant woman to come in and take shelter from the rain. Weâll send her out when the ambulance is
here.â
âBut Mr. Larson has ordered that none of Jethroâs people is allowed to step foot into the building.â To
his credit, the guard kept to the command that he was given and did act rashly.
As the rain pelted the pavement, Janet grew more agitated. âLook, Iâll take responsibility, okay? Iâll
make sure you wonât get scolded for this. These people have been out there for a long time, and the
pregnant woman has already fainted. If the media gets wind of this situation, it will only cause another
tide of negative opinion from the public.â
In truth, the security guard was also feeling sorry for the pregnant woman. His wife had just given birth,
too, so he was doubly sympathetic. After hearing Janetâs reassurance, he cast his hesitations away.
He proceeded to gather some of his teammates from security and instructed them to carry the pregnant
woman into the building. He was just about to close the door when Jethro suddenly rushed over, trying
to squeeze through the gap.
âStep away! Weâre only taking the woman in, no one else!â The security guard barked angrily, outraged
by Jethroâs lack of discretion.
âWho knows what youâll do to my wife? That woman is carrying my child! I have to be by her side and
take care of her!â Jethro was drenched. His hair and clothes were stuck to his b*ody, making him look
like some s*eedy rat from the sewers.
The security guard looked back at Janet and waited for her order.
Jethro turned to her as well. âMrs. Larson!â he cried out as he fell to his knees. âPlease let me in, so I
can keep my wife company. Iâm really worried. Sheâs about to give birth!â
âYouâll only stir up trouble if you come inside,â Janet said patiently. âI have to take care of the interests
of the Larson Group and all the employees here before anything else. Iâm sorry, but I canât let you in.
Donât worry; we wonât do anything to your wife. You can watch over her through the glass door.â
But Jethro rubbed his palms together and kept begging. âWhy would I make trouble at a time like this?
Please, if you donât believe me, I am willing to swear upon anything you want. I just want my wife and
child to be safe. Here, look! I swear that I will never cause any trouble in the Larson Group again.â
Never again? That was a rather bold choice of words, and the promise certainly carried some weight.
Janet held out her hand and borrowed the recorder pen from Estella. âIn order to keep you from going
back on your word, I want you to swear here and now that you will accept the compensation offered by
the Larson Group, and you wonât hold any protests in the future. You must also promise to never
spread any false rumors against the Larson Group again.â
Jethro was visibly stunned, and his eyes flashed with cunning. He didnât expect Janet to entrap him like
this. He needed to enter the building, though. To do that, he had no choice but to agree to everything
she said, on the record.
After getting what she wanted, Janet put the device away and signaled at the security guard. âLet him
in.â
